Do not be afraid to love. Remember dear old Don Quixote, viewing the world with love. He saw many beautiful things no one else saw. Try being dear Don Quixote for a day.
BERNIE SIEGELWhenever you get around to doing what you want to do, it will be now. The things you need to do to live a happier, more fulfilling life-the only time you can possible start doing them is now.

If something controls you in a way that puzzles you, think of it as a mystery. Mysteries are best approached by closing your eyes and mouth to experience darkness and silence.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Getting well is not the only goal. Even more important is learning to live without fear, to be at peace with life and ultimately death.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
You can find examples of how little we value ourselves everywhere you look. The signs on the front of the convenience stores where Stephen lives in Florida tell the story. Beer, ice, bread and milk are the big come-ons.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Do not go looking for problems to feed your soul. Just let life be your teacher. It will nourish you with its inevitable difficulties.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Be grateful simply for being alive. When you are grateful for life, pure and simple, your life becomes one you can be grateful for. That may strike you as circular or even backward logic, but your attitude really does have an effect on how things work out.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
If you see what you do each day as your way of loving the world and helping it heal, then life gets to be a lot different. The difference between burning up and burning out is the difference between loving what you are doing and not loving it.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Open your mind to all possibilities and believe!
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Remember this: Now is the only time you have. When God created the universe, it was now. You can’t say to creation and energy, “I’ll do it later, not now.” Later doesn’t exist. Creation doesn’t know anything but now.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
No matter what the statistics say there is always a way.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
An awareness of one’s mortality can lead you to wake up and live an authentic, meaningful life.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
I believe that we are here to contribute love to the planet – each of us in our own way
BERNIE SIEGEL -
I cannot guarantee that the orders you place with God will always be filled. Prayer is not a test of God, but a call for help to find your inner strength and talent.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Not because I’m fascinated by the human body or want to understand death, but I like people and I want to help them. That also became my problem, because I couldn’t help everyone, I couldn’t fix everyone.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Don’t try to help people to ‘not die’, help them to enjoy life!
BERNIE SIEGEL -
God wants us to know that life is a series of beginnings not endings. Just as graduations are not terminations but commencements. Creation is an ongoing process and when we create a perfect world where love and compassion are shared by all suffering will cease.
